Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/541,786, filed Jul. 5, 2012, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application 61/504,339, filed Jul. 5, 2011, of U.S. Provisional Patent Application 61/521,448, filed Aug. 9, 2011, and of U.S. Provisional Patent Application 61/523,349, filed Aug. 14, 2011, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- This invention relates generally to user interfaces for computerized systems, and specifically to user interfaces that are based on three-dimensional sensing.
- Many different types of user interface devices and methods are currently available. Common tactile interface devices include the computer keyboard, mouse and joystick. Touch screens detect the presence and location of a touch by a finger or other object within the display area. Infrared remote controls are widely used, and “wearable” hardware devices have been developed, as well, for purposes of remote control.
- Computer interfaces based on three-dimensional (3D) sensing of parts of the user's body have also been proposed. For example, PCT International Publication WO 03/071410, whose disclosure is incorporated herein by reference, describes a gesture recognition system using depth-perceptive sensors. A 3D sensor provides position information, which is used to identify gestures created by a body part of interest. The gestures are recognized based on a shape of a body part and its position and orientation over an interval. The gesture is classified for determining an input into a related electronic device.
- As another example, U.S. Pat. No. 7,348,963, whose disclosure is incorporated herein by reference, describes an interactive video display system, in which a display screen displays a visual image, and a camera captures 3D information regarding an object in an interactive area located in front of the display screen. A computer system directs the display screen to change the visual image in response to changes in the object.
- Documents incorporated by reference in the present patent application are to be considered an integral part of the application except that to the extent any terms are defined in these incorporated documents in a manner that conflicts with the definitions made explicitly or implicitly in the present specification, only the definitions in the present specification should be considered.
- The description above is presented as a general overview of related art in this field and should not be construed as an admission that any of the information it contains constitutes prior art against the present patent application.

FIGS. 10A-10D are schematic pictorial illustrations showing the hierarchical ZoomGrid surfaces based on the tree data structure, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. - When using physical tactile input devices such as buttons, rollers or touch screens, a user typically engages and disengages control of a user interface by touching and/or manipulating the physical device. Embodiments of the present invention describe methods and mechanism for interacting with a display coupled to a computer executing a non-tactile zoom-based user interface that includes three-dimensional (3D) sensing, by a 3D sensor, of motion or change of position of one or more body parts, typically a hand or a finger, of the user.
- In some embodiments the zoom-based user interface utilizes a ZoomGrid control scheme that enables the user to select a given interactive item from multiple interactive items presented on a display. The ZoomGrid control scheme described hereinbelow enables the user to select a specific interactive item from any size pile of interactive items (also called a ZoomGrid surface), by performing continuous gestures using the user's hands and/or fingers. The ZoomGrid paradigm described herein is not limited to selection of interactive items and can be easily extended to selection of actions on a given interactive item.
- In some embodiments, the user identifies one of the multiple presented items, and reaches out a hand toward the identified item. As the user starts to pull the ZoomGrid surface that includes the identified item, the zoom-based user interface zooms in to the region where the desired interactive item is presented. Finally, the user continues to pull, and adjust his/her hand's movement until the computer zooms in on the identified item, and the identified item is large enough (e.g., covering the entire display) to be regarded as selected.
- As explained hereinbelow, the user typically does not need to aim accurately when initially reaching out toward the region that includes the identified item. While pulling on the ZoomGrid surface, the user can “zero in” on the identified item by moving his/her hand transversely along a horizontal X-axis and/or a vertical Y-axis.
- Embodiments of the current invention described herein provide methods and mechanisms for users to “dive” into piles of hierarchical information that are presented on a display. In some embodiments, a Multi-Level ZoomGrid control scheme enables users to dive into a subject by literally pulling interesting topics (presented as interactive items) further and further out of piles of presented topics that are hierarchically presented to them.
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic, pictorial illustration of a non-tactile zoom-based interface 20 (also referred to herein as the zoom-based interface) for operation by auser 22 of acomputer 26, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The non-tactile zoom-based interface is based on a3D sensing device 24 coupled to the computer, which captures 3D scene information of a scene that includes the body (or at least a body part, such as one or more of hands 30) of the user.Device 24 or a separate camera (not shown in the figures) may also capture video images of the scene. The information captured bydevice 24 is processed bycomputer 26, which drives adisplay 28 so as to present and manipulate on-screeninteractive items 38. Details of the operation of3D sensing device 24 are described in U.S. Patent Application 2010/0007717, filed on Mar. 4, 2009, whose disclosure is incorporated herein by reference. -
Computer 26, executing zoom-basedinterface 20, processes data generated bydevice 24 in order to reconstruct a 3D map ofuser 22. The term “3D map” refers to a set of 3D coordinates measured, by way of example, with reference to a generallyhorizontal X-axis 32 in space, a generally vertical Y-axis 34 in space and a depth Z-axis 36 in space, based ondevice 24. The 3D coordinates represent the surface of a given object, in this case the user's body. In one embodiment,device 24 projects a pattern of spots onto the object and captures an image of the projected pattern.Computer 26 then computes the 3D coordinates of points on the surface of the user's body by triangulation, based on transverse shifts of the spots in the pattern. Methods and devices for this sort of triangulation-based 3D mapping using a projected pattern are described, for example, in PCT International Publications WO 2007/043036, WO 2007/105205 and WO 2008/120217, whose disclosures are incorporated herein by reference. Alternatively,interface 20 may use other methods of 3D mapping, using single or multiple cameras or other types of sensors, as are known in the art. -
Computer 26 typically comprises a general-purpose computer processor, which is programmed in software to carry out the functions described hereinbelow. The software may be downloaded to the processor in electronic form, over a network, for example, or it may alternatively be provided on non-transitory tangible media, such as optical, magnetic, or electronic memory media. Alternatively or additionally, some or all of the functions of the image processor may be implemented in dedicated hardware, such as a custom or semi-custom integrated circuit or a programmable digital signal processor (DSP). Althoughcomputer 26 is shown inFIG. 1 , by way of example, as a separate unit from sensingdevice 24, some or all of the processing functions of the computer may be performed by suitable dedicated circuitry within the housing of the sensing device or otherwise associated with the sensing device. - As another alternative, these processing functions may be carried out by a suitable processor that is integrated with display 28 (in a television set, for example) or with any other suitable sort of computerized device, such as a game console or media player. The sensing functions of
device 24 may likewise be integrated into the computer or other computerized apparatus that is to be controlled by the sensor output. -
FIG. 2 is a flow diagram that schematically illustrates a method of selecting a giveninteractive item 38 via zoom-baseduser interface 20, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. In apresentation step 40,computer 26 presents multipleinteractive items 38 ondisplay 28.Computer 28 can present the interactive items in either an organized or unorganized form. Examples of organized forms are described inFIGS. 4A-4C hereinbelow. - In an
association step 42,computer 26associates hand 30 with a giveninteractive item 38 presented ondisplay 28. To associate given interactive item,computer 26 captures a first sequence of images indicating a position ofhand 30 in space, andassociates hand 30 with the given interactive item (also referred to herein as the active item). Upon capturing the first sequence of images from sensingdevice 24,computer 26 may generate corresponding 3D maps of at least a body part of user 22 (including hand 30) in proximity to display 28. - In some embodiments, the active item comprises the interactive item in closest proximity to a center of
display 28. In alternative embodiments,computer 26 can identify a giveninteractive item 38 based on the user's gaze or on a pointing gesture performed byhand 30, andassociate hand 30 with the given interactive item. Identifying a given interactive item presented ondisplay 28 based on a gaze and/or a pointing gesture is described in PCT International Application PCT/IB2012/050577, filed Feb. 9, 2012, whose disclosure is incorporated herein by reference. - In some embodiments,
computer 26 can initiate the association ofhand 30 with a giveninteractive item 38 upon the first sequence of images indicating a first specific gesture performed by the user. For example, the first gesture may comprise theuser raising hand 30 or movinghand 30 towarddisplay 28. The first gesture may also include a Grab gesture, which comprises the user closing at least some fingers ofhand 30. Likewise,computer 26 can cancel the association ofhand 30 with a giveninteractive item 38, upon detecting a second specific gesture performed by the user. For example, the second specific gesture may comprise a Release gesture, which comprises the user opening the fingers of the hand. The Grab and the Release gestures are described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/423,314, filed on Mar. 19, 2012, whose disclosure is incorporated herein by reference. - Incorporating the Grab and the Release gestures into zoom-based
user interface 20 can be particularly useful when there are multiple users positioned within a field of view ofsensing device 24. For example, a first given user can engage zoom-baseduser interface 20 by performing a Grab gesture, and disengage from the user interface by performing a Release gesture, thereby enabling a second given user to engage the user interface. - As
user 22 performs the first gesture (e.g., the user keeps the fingers of the hand closed after initiating the Grab gesture),computer 26 may respond to any additional movement ofhand 30 that was indicated in the first sequence of images. For example, ifcomputer 26 detectsuser 22 movinghand 30 in a transverse motion (i.e., a side-to-side motion alongX-axis 32, or an upward or downward motion along Y-axis 34) whilehand 30 is “open” (i.e., the user has not closed the fingers ofhand 30 to perform a Grab gesture), the computer can associate the hand with a differentinteractive item 38 presented on the display. In some embodiments (as described hereinbelow), if the user moveshand 30 in a transverse motion while performing a Grab gesture,computer 26 can scroll the interactive items presented ondisplay 28. - In a
first comparison step 44,computer 26 captures a second sequence of images until the computer detects a movement ofhand 30. Upon detecting a movement ofhand 30, in a resizingstep 46,computer 26 responsively changes the size of the given interactive item associated with the hand. In some embodiments, changing the size of the given interactive item comprises enlarging the given interactive item ondisplay 28. For example,computer 26 can enlarge the associated interactive item upon detecting a specific movement of the hand, such a Pull gesture that comprisesuser 22 movinghand 30 away from display along Z-axis 36. The Pull gesture is described in U.S. patent application ser. No. 13/423,314, filed on Mar. 19, 2012, whose disclosure is incorporated herein by reference. - In a
second comparison step 48, if the size of the active item is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold size, thencomputer 26 proceeds to aselection step 50, wherein the computer selects the active item. The computer may then activate a function associated with the active item. The method then ends. Returning to step 48, if the active item's size is less than the threshold size, then the method reverts to step 44. - In some embodiments, activating the function comprises presenting an image over a full area of
display 28. In additional embodiments, activating the function comprises executing a software application associated with the active item. In further embodiments the active item is associated with a media item (e.g., a music track or a movie), and activating the function comprises playing a media file associated with the active item. - In alternative embodiments,
computer 26 may present a virtual input device ondisplay 28, and the item selection method described in the flow diagram ofFIG. 2 can be used to control the virtual input device. Examples of virtual input devices include but are not limited to virtual keyboards, virtual numeric keypads and virtual game controls. -
FIG. 3 is a schematic pictorial illustration of avirtual keyboard 60 presented ondisplay 28, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.Keyboard 60 comprises multiplevirtual keys 62 and atext box 64. Asuser 22 moveshand 30 towards a givenkey 62,computer 26 highlights the given key (e.g., the “I” key shown inFIG. 3 ). Ifuser 22 wants to select the given key, the user can perform a Grab gesture, followed by a Pull gesture. Asuser 22 pulls backhand 30,computer 26 responsively enlarges the given virtual key. Upon the presented size of the given virtual key meeting a specific threshold,computer 26 accepts the given virtual key as input and presents the character associated with the virtual key intext box 64. Prior to performing the Grab and the Pull gestures (i.e., while the hand is extended toward display 28),user 22 can highlight a different virtual key 62 by moving his/her hand transversely. In response to the transverse motion,computer 26 can highlight the virtual key to which the user is pointing. - As described supra,
computer 26 can be configured to capture sequences of images indicating movements ofhand 30, where the hand can be moving towarddisplay 28, away from the display, or in a transverse motion relative to the display. For example, while interacting withvirtual keyboard 60,computer 26 highlights a given virtual key 62 in response to detecting a transverse motion ofhand 30, and selects a given virtual key in response to a Pull gesture. However, there are instances whenuser 22 inadvertently moveshand 30 in a transverse motion while performing a Pull gesture. - To accommodate the inadvertent transverse motion, computer can be configured to assign less significance to any hand motion detected along
X-axis 32 and/or Y-axis 34 whileuser 22 is performing a Pull gesture. Limiting the significance of any transverse motion ascomputer 26 enlarges (i.e., “zooms in” on) the active interactive item as the user performs a Pull gesture can create a “funnel” like sensation towards a giveninteractive item 38 that the user intends to select. - The significance of the transverse motion can be inversely related to a location of
hand 30 while performing a Pull gesture. In other words,computer 26 can assign less significance to any detected transverse motion ofhand 30 as the distance between the hand anddisplay 28 increases. In operation, ifcomputer 26 “suspects” thatuser 22 has identified a given interactive item and detects the user starting to perform a Pull gesture, the computer can start to limit the significance of any detected transverse motion ofhand 30. As the Pull gesture progresses (andcomputer 26 further zooms in on the given interactive item) the computer can responsively decrease the significance of any detected transverse motion. - In some embodiments, the “funnel” paradigm can be extended to inhibit the association of
hand 30 with a different interactive item 38 (or virtual key 62) when the associated interactive item has been enlarged beyond a predetermined threshold size, responsively touser 22 movinghand 30 away fromdisplay 28. In other words, uponcomputer 26 presenting the associated item at a size equal or greater to the predetermined size, the computer can substantially ignore any transverse movement ofhand 30 alongX-axis 32 and/or Y-axis 34. - As described supra,
computer 26 can presentinteractive items 38 in an organized layout. For example,computer 26 can organizeinteractive items 38 as a grid ondisplay 28. In some embodiments,computer 26 can organizeinteractive items 38 as a one-dimensional grid comprising either a single horizontal row of the interactive items or a single vertical column of the interactive items. In alternative embodiments,computer 26 can organizeinteractive items 38 as a two-dimensional grid ondisplay 28. -
FIG. 4A is a schematic pictorial illustration of computer presentinginteractive items 38 in a one-dimensionalhorizontal grid 70, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention,FIG. 4B is a schematic pictorial illustration ofcomputer 26 presentinginteractive items 38 in a one-dimensionalvertical grid 72, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, andFIG. 4C is a schematic pictorial illustration ofcomputer 26 presentinginteractive items 38 in a two-dimensional grid 74, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. In some embodiments,grids display 28. Inother words computer 26 can present a “window” into the one or the two-dimensional grids that can be scrolled using embodiments described hereinbelow.Grids -
FIG. 5 is a flow diagram that schematically illustrates a method of selecting a given on-screeninteractive item 38 fromgrid 74, andFIGS. 6A-6D are schematic pictorial illustrations ofuser 22 interacting withgrid 74, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. In the description ofFIGS. 6A-6D herein, some ofinteractive items 38 may be differentiated by appending a letter to the identifying numeral, so thatgrid 74 comprisesinteractive items 38A-38I. - In a
presentation step 80,computer 26 presents multipleinteractive items 38 ingrid 74 ondisplay 28, and in afirst capture step 82,computer 26 captures a first sequence of images indicating a motion ofhand 30 towarddisplay 28, followed by a Grab gesture. In afirst association step 84,computer 26 associates a giveninteractive item 38 withhand 30. In the example shown inFIGS. 6A-6D ,computer 26 associatesinteractive item 38H withhand 30. Alternatively,computer 26 can associatehand 30 with the interactive item presented at a center of grid 74 (e.g.,interactive item 38E). - In a
first comparison step 86, ifcomputer 26 captures a second sequence of images indicating a transverse motion of hand (i.e., a horizontal motion alongX-axis 32 and/or a vertical motion of the hand along Y-axis 34) in a first direction relative to display 28, then in a scrollingstep 88,computer 26scrolls grid 74 in a second direction, which is different from the first direction of the hand. For example, ifuser 22 moveshand 30 from left to right, thencomputer 26scrolls grid 74 in an opposite direction from right to left. Likewise, ifuser 22 moveshand 30 in an upward vertical motion, thencomputer 26scrolls grid 74 downward. - In some embodiments, as
user 22 moveshand 30 towards a giveninteractive item 38 presented off-center ondisplay 28,computer 26 can reposition the off-center interactive item to the center of thedisplay 28, andassociate hand 30 with the centered interactive item. Thus, in contrast to existing touch screen paradigms that are well known in the art, the interactive items ondisplay 28 pan in a direction that is generally opposite to the direction of transverse movement of the user's hand. (For example, reaching toward a giveninteractive item 38 at the right of the screen causes the interactive items on screen to shift left.) This sort of scan control is easily learned and internalized by users after only a short orientation period, and can facilitate rapid, intuitive interaction with the display. - In a
second comparison step 90, ifcomputer 26 captures a third sequence of images indicating thatuser 22 is performing a Pull gesture by movinghand 30 away from display 28 (i.e., along Z-axis 36), then in a zoomingstep 92, the computer enlarges both the associated interactive item and the interactive items surrounding the associated interactive item, as space allows. Alternatively,computer 26 can enlarge only the associated interactive item. -
FIG. 6A showsdisplay 28 presenting all of the interactive items (includingitems 38A-38I) ingrid 74.FIGS. 6B and 6C showsdisplay 28 presenting a subset of the interactive items asuser 22 pullshand 30 away fromdisplay 28, andcomputer 26 zooms in on respective subsets ofgrid 74. InFIG. 6B ,computer 26 zooms in and fillsdisplay 28 withitems 38A-38I asuser 22 starts performing a Pull Gesture.FIG. 38C showsinteractive items display 28 asuser 22 continues the Pull gesture and moveshand 30 further from the display. - In a
third comparison step 94, ifcomputer 26 is presenting the associated interactive item at a size greater than or equal to a specific threshold, then in aselection step 96, the computer selects the associated item, and the method ends. As described supra, selecting the associated interactive item may comprise presenting an image over a full area ofdisplay 28.FIG. 6D shows interactive item 38I presented as a full-screen image ondisplay 28. - Returning to step 94, if
computer 26 is presenting the associated interactive item at a size less than the specific threshold, then the method continues withstep 90. Returning to step 90, if the third sequence of images do not indicate a Pull gesture, then the method continues withstep 86. Finally, returning to step 86, if the second sequence of images do not indicate a transverse motion ofhand 30, then the method continues withstep 96. - While playing a media file,
computer 26 can present media controls thatuser 22 can engage using embodiments described herein. Media player controls may consist of controls for actions such as play/pause, seek, mute, volume up/down, next/prey track, fast-forward, rewind and so on. In embodiments of the present invention, while a media is playing (either in the foreground or in the background), the player controls can be placed on an invisible ZoomGrid surface. During the playback, when the user performs a Pull gesture, the ZoomGrid surface containing the imaginary controls gradually becomes visible. The controls can then be selected in the same way as any otherinteractive items 38 presented on a ZoomGrid surface. - A special behavior of the ZoomGrid based player controls mechanism is that upon selecting a given control, the controls surface can retract back and “disappear” (i.e., as if a spring connects it to the surface on which the media is playing). Toggle controls like mute/unmute or pause/play or buttons can be easily implemented again by the same embodiments as those used to select the interactive items (i.e., the item selection triggers a given operation). Continuous controls such as volume or seek can be implementing by transverse movements after selection of the control, and a Release gesture can be used to disengage from the control.

FIG. 7 is a schematic pictorial illustration of a first example of a ZoomGrid based media player control, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. While playing amovie 100,computer 26 presents a one-dimensional ZoomGrid 102 in response to theuser moving hand 30 towarddisplay 28.ZoomGrid 102 comprises apause control 104, astop control 106,play control 108, and a seekcontrol 110. In the example shown inFIG. 7 ,user 22 has selected avolume control 112 using embodiments described herein, and can manipulate avolume slider icon 114 via transverse hand motions alongX-axis 32. -
FIG. 8 is a schematic pictorial illustration of a second example of a ZoomGrid based media player control, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. In response touser 22 selecting seekcontrol 110 using embodiments described herein,computer 26 presents a one-dimensional ZoomGrid 120 that comprises scrub points 122, 124, 126, 128, 130, 132 and 134. The scrub points comprise specific scenes inmovie 100 thatuser 22 can directly skip to by selecting one of the scrub points using the embodiments described herein. In the example shown inFIG. 8 ,user 22 has selectedscrub point 122, and the computer responsively presents a given scene inmovie 100 that corresponds to the selected scrub point. - In some embodiments, the ZoomGrid mechanisms described herein can be used to control television channel selection (i.e., “surfing” and/or “zapping” channels). In a ZoomGrid channel surfing system all of the channels can be organized on a two-dimensional ZoomGrid surface. If the user is viewing a certain channel and wants to look for an alternative channel, the user starts pulling at the ZoomGrid surface (e.g., by perform a Grab gesture followed by a Pull gesture),
computer 26 “pushes back” (i.e., zooms out) the ZoomGrid, thereby revealing additional channels that surround the channel currently being viewed. As the user pulls or pushes the ZoomGrid (zooming out),computer 26 can reveal additional channels. When the user identifies an interesting channel, the user can start pulling back on the ZoomGrid surface in order to select the channel using embodiments described herein. - An extension to this embodiment is to organize the channels on ZoomGrid according to their popularity. For example,
computer 26 can present the most popular channel at a center ofdisplay 28, and surround the most popular channel with “rings” of channels, where the more popular channels are presented in rings closer to the center. In some embodiments,computer 26 can measure popularity based on a specific user's viewing habits. Alternatively,computer 26 can measure channel popularity based on viewing habits of all users of the computer. - In further embodiments, the ZoomGrid mechanisms described herein can be used by
computer 26 to simulate an interaction between the user and a handheld remote control device. Although most handheld touchscreen-based remote control devices require actual contact between the user's fingers and the device, some new types of remote control devices are capable of sensing the locations of the user's fingers in space, in proximity to the device. For example, the type of optical depth sensor that is described in the above-referenced U.S. Patent Application Publication 2010/0007717 may be implemented on a small scale in a handheld device (not shown) in order to reconstruct 3D maps ofhand 30 in proximity to the device, and detect motion of the hand and fingers in three dimensions. As another example, the TeleTouch™ device, produced by ZRRO Ltd. (Tel Aviv, Israel) comprises a “3D Multi-Touch” device, which detects movement of the hand and fingers in both touching and “hovering” positions. - The principles of the zooming interface that are described supra may be implemented, mutatis mutandis, in the in the handheld 3D remote control devices depicted herein. In other words, rather than moving
hand 30 in space in front of thedisplay 28, the user moves the hand (or fingers) in the same way relative to the remote control device. The device can sense transverse (alongX-axis 32 and/or Y-axis 34) and lateral (along Z-axis 36) motion, as well as Grab and Release gestures, and convey control signals accordingly to the computer. - In operation,
computer 26 presents multiple interactive items ondisplay 28, and receives, from the handheld remote control device, a first signal indicating a position in space ofhand 30 in proximity to the handheld remote control device. Responsively to the position,computer 26 associates a giveninteractive item 38 withhand 30. After associating the item,computer 26 receives, from the handheld remote control device, a second signal indicating a movement of the hand relative to the handheld remote control device, and responsively to the movement, changes a size of (e.g., enlarges) the one of the interactive items on the display. - This sort of use of a remote control device permits the same sort of versatile, intuitive control that is offered by the full-scale ZoomGrid described above, while relieving the user of a need to sit up (or stand) and make large arm motions in order to interact with the display.
- In some embodiments, the ZoomGrid mechanisms described supra can be extended to a multi-level ZoomGrid control scheme that allows
user 22 to “pull” a ZoomGrid surface loaded withinteractive items 38. In addition to the embodiments described supra (i.e., media items software applications and virtual input devices), the interactive items in a given ZoomGrid surface may comprise folders (i.e., directories) ofsub-items 38. As explained hereinbelow, while presenting a given folder on a ZoomGrid surface, the computer may not present the sub-items associated with the given folder unless the given folder is presented at a predetermined size. In other words, in response to gestures described herein, when zooming in to a givenfolder 38,computer 26 can presentinteractive items 38 that are associated with the folder, and enable the user to continue zooming in to select a giveninteractive item 38. - The multi-level ZoomGrid mechanism described herein enables the user to dig inside multi-level folder data structures, and to select a given
interactive item 38 all in one single continuous three dimensional movement, typically a Pull gesture. Alternatively the user can use the Grab and Release gestures in order to intermittently grab and release control of each of the folders along a hierarchical path to the given interactive item, and then select the given interactive item. -
FIG. 9 is an schematic illustration of atree data structure 140 thatcomputer 26 can present as a series of hierarchical ZoomGrid surfaces 142, 144, 146, 148 and 150, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Each of the ZoomGrid surface comprises one or moreinteractive items 38. In operation, asuser 22 traversestree 140 and accesses a giveninteractive item 38,computer 26 presents a ZoomGrid surface comprising sub-items 38 (i.e., children nodes in tree 140) of the given interactive item. In the example shown inFIG. 9 , the sub-items can comprise menus, media items or media player controls. -
FIGS. 10A-10D are schematic pictorial illustrations showing a multi-level ZoomGrid control scheme based ontree 140, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Using embodiments described herein, a user gradually zooms in from viewing a menu of media types (ZoomGrid Surface 142 inFIG. 10A ), to types categories of movies (ZoomGrid Surface 146 inFIG. 10B ), to viewing the movies in a particular category (ZoomGrid Surface 148 inFIG. 10C ), and then zooming in to select a given interactive item 38 (e.g., movie 100) for viewing (FIG. 10D ). When the user zooms in on the interactive item representing the chosen movie so that it grows beyond a certain threshold size, the movie starts to play automatically, without the user having to explicitly select the movie or activate a “play” control. As shown inFIGS. 7 and 8 , once the movie is playing,user 22 can control various playback controls using the ZoomGrid media control embodiments described supra. - While interacting with a multi-level ZoomGrid,
computer 26 can define certain zoom levels as “comfort zones,” because they present content in a desirable way (for example, with an integer number of rows and columns of icons, with no icons cut off at the edges of the display). Ifuser 22 transversely moves hand (i.e., alongX-axis 32 and/or Y-axis 34) whiledisplay 28 is in a comfort zone, the zoom may be locked, so that only significant motions along Z-axis 36 motions changes the zoom level. In other situations, the zoom levels can be biased in order to drive the display into a comfort zone in response to relatively small movement ofhand 30 along Z-axis 36. For example, if a giveninteractive item 38 comprises a folder ofsub-items 38, thencomputer 26 will enlarge folder 36 (and thereby display the sub-items) upon detecting significant motion ofhand 30 away fromdisplay 28. - It will be appreciated that the embodiments described above are cited by way of example, and that the present invention is not limited to what has been particularly shown and described hereinabove. Rather, the scope of the present invention includes both combinations and subcombinations of the various features described hereinabove, as well as variations and modifications thereof which would occur to persons skilled in the art upon reading the foregoing description and which are not disclosed in the prior art.
